Dark red-brown colour. A firm creamy and cream-coloured head. The smell of roasted malt, caramel and the sweet fruitiness of the alcohol give this beer the perfect aroma. Flavour: Caramel, sweet fruitiness and a pleasant bitterness are the predominant flavours. The aftertaste reveals a pinch of toffee and date.

33cl bottle from Hopduvel, Ghent. A deep reddish brown colour with a billowing beige head that settles back to a thin covering; sour grainy aroma with some caramel in the background; soft and smooth in the mouth with a taste of dates and burnt sugar; then a warming fruity finish, with lingering dates. A pleasant beer to sip slowly.

Marron rojiza. Espuma manchada, efervescente. Aroma tostadp, dulce y con notas de cereza. Cuerpo moderado. Combina base acaramelada con un tono frutal de ligera acidez. Gas quizàs excesivo. Esconde bien el alcohol.

Monumentális, tömör, örökké tartó, bézs színű hab, barna szín. Kissé szúrós, enyhén karamelles illatvilág, és ahogy melegszik, beköszön egy fanyar gyümölcsös vonal is. Ízében a karamell maláta dominál, de nem túl tolakodóan, mellette enyhe savanyú és keserű, valamint némi fahordós aromák is érezhetőek. Utóíze hosszú, enyhe keserű, alig érezhető dohossággal és savanyúval. Nem rossz, de nem is nyűgözött le, valahogy nincs igazi összhang. Talán még érnie kellene.

Gekocht bij: Famous Belgian Beer Events, Slinkerstraat 26, 3920 Lommel op 10-09-2014. Als je het flesje openmaakt komt de geur van zoete kersen je tegemoet. Bij het uitschenken krijg je een gebroken wit en veel gelijkmatig schuim dat daarna met grote bellen inzakt. Het is donkerbruin van kleur en wazig van uitzicht. Geen pareling merkbaar. De geur doet je denken aan karamelstroop en ook precies wat gebrande mout. De smaak is tamelijk zoet en ook wat zurig. De langdurige nasmaak is hoofdzakelijk sterk bitter en prikkelend in de mond. Een matig volmondig biertje. Doordat het ook wat zurig is doet het wat denken aan geuze. Ondanks dit is het toch een verassend lekker bier met een uitgebreid aroma-pallet.

330ml bottle from Vanuxeem. Gushes a little on opening. Pours a dark mahogany brown with vibrant off-white head. Aroma is leather and sour fruits. Taste is tart, over-ripe soft dark fruits & some sour oud bruin notes. Interesting.

33cl bottle @home. BBE 07/16. Deep brown, thick beige head. Brown sugar, spicy, toffeeish aroma, dark fruity notes. Flavor has yeast, cinnamon, dark fruits and loads of sugar. Tickles. Toasted, caramelly finish. High carbonation. Too sweet for my taste. Edit: actually as the beer warms up a little I start to enjoy the fruity and spicy notes the yeast gives. up two notches from 3.0
